As soon as we shared the new build with folks, I felt the energy back in my veins again! There is NOTHING like seeing people battle it out on our leaderboard, a little digital euphoria manifesting - come join! ✨
Playtest 2 has just kicked off. We'd be excited if you put Sparrow Warfare through the wringer – even if you break the game! As long as you give us feedback, of course. store.steampowered.com/app/3473440/...

Animal Fest is on and we're happy to have our little Sparrow Warfare take part in it. But we're happy if you play other animal-based games until then, so knock yourself out! It's a good bunch of games!

"Petroidvania!" YES! More puns like this, it's similar to @neonaurelius.bsky.social 's game Sparrow Warfare and using "Peckbuilder" instead of deckbuilder.

I guess I'm obligated to try out this game on stream soon 👀 deck builder, birds AND my name in the title? It would be illegal not to I think.
Yeaaaahhhhhhh! Thanks @caseyexplosion.bsky.social!
Me & @martinpi.bsky.social are making SPARROW WARFARE, a mahjong-inspired deckbuilder with a ton of birds! We'll have a playtest coming next week, so excited to welcome folks into our bird kingdom 🙌🦜🦉🦤🦆🕊️

Our first playtest ended after hundreds of people played the game. While we're preparing for the second playtest, and you're eagerly waiting, it's totally ok if you wishlist Sparrow Warfare. In fact it would be very nice of you if you do!

100%! We're a team of two with no artist working on our game Sparrow Warfare at the moment & I'm having the BEST fun remixing, collaging, recolouring & vectorising public domain art to make our bird tiles! It also feels like bringing little fragments of the past into the future.

Our gameplay (super weird deckbuilder) isn't retro, but our art sure is: 2-person team, no artist, so I've been making our bird tiles by collaging, remixing, recolouring, & vectorising old public domain pics of birds. Sparrow Warfare: new playtest up next week:
